General description

Octane-d18 is a deuterated NMR solvent. It is useful in NMR-based research and analyses. It can be prepared starting from n-octane. It undergoes H/D (Hydrogen/Deuterium) exchange reaction with mono pinacolboryl complex at 110°C.

Application

Octane-d18 has been used to evaluate the separation factors of the deuterated octane isomers by gas chromatography (GC).
